Khulna Tigers Vs Sylhet Sunrisers Predicted XIs

Khulna Tigers Predicted XI

Soumya Sarkar, Andre Fletcher, Mushfiqur Rahim (c & wk), Yasir Ali, Thisara Perera, Mahedi Hasan, Jaker Ali, Seekkuge Prasanna, Khaled Ahmed, Kamrul Islam Rabbi, Nabil Samad

Anamul Haque (wk), Lendl Simmons, Mohammad Mithun, Colin Ingram, Nadif Chowdhury, Mosaddek Hossain (c), Sohag Gazi, Muktar Ali, Shiraz Ahmed, Jubair Hossain, Nazmul Islam

Soumya Sarkar

Soumya Sarkar has had a silent season but found some form in the previous game with a nice 43. He is a handy all-rounder and top-order batter. With the playoffs around the corner, Khulna will hope he spends some time in the middle and finds some consistency.

Lendl Simmons

None of the Sylhet players got going this season, and Simmons is no different. With Sylhet having low chances of qualifying players like Simmons could come out with some freedom. With the IPL Auction on its way, a couple of strong innings from him may help catch the eye of some franchises.

Team News

Khulna is going to go unchanged unless somebody is injured or rested. Sylhet could make some rotations as they still look to find the right balance, and will want to try some new players as they begin preparation for next season.
